Panduit S14-120-TL0 StrongHold Intermediate Cable Ties, 14.5 In., Black, 250-Pack
Overview
The Panduit S14-120-TL0 is a mid-wide, intermediate-length nylon cable tie engineered for commercial construction, outdoor wiring runs, and general-purpose bundling where weather exposure and load-bearing reliability matter. At 368 mm (14.5 in.) overall length with a minimum tensile strength of 54.4 kg (120 lb), these are not lightweight data-center zip ties — they're built for conduit work, plenum spaces, and exterior cable management where failures are expensive. Sold in 250-count packages (carton quantity: 2,500), the S14-120-TL0 fits procurement workflows that need consistent, UL-listed consumables at scale.
Part of Panduit's StrongHold™ cable management line, the S14-120-TL0 carries UL 62275 listing (Types 2 and 21) and RoHS compliance — credentials that matter when a specification sheet, building inspector, or client contract demands documented compliance. Stock the S14 120 TL0 anywhere you need outdoor-rated, plenum-approved bundling hardware in quantity.
Key Features
- 54.4 kg (120 lb) Minimum Tensile Strength: That's the rated pull-out force before the locking mechanism fails. On a conduit run carrying a full bundle of 12 AWG conductors, that headroom means the tie holds without micro-cracking under normal cable movement, vibration, or thermal cycling — not a concern you'd have with a generic commodity tie.
- Polyamide 6-6 (Nylon 6-6) Material: PA 6-6 handles UV exposure, moisture, and a broader temperature range than PA 6. For exterior cable trays, rooftop runs, or wall-penetration bundles subject to sun and rain, the material choice keeps ties from becoming brittle and snapping during a future maintenance pull.
- 368 mm (14.5 in.) Overall Length: Mid-wide intermediate length accommodates larger cable bundles — think groups of conduit runs, multi-conductor security or structured cabling ties, or HVAC wire harnesses — without doubling up ties or daisy-chaining. You get a clean single loop on bulkier bundles.
- AH-2 Plenum Rating: Listed for plenum air-handling spaces (AH-2) under UL 62275. If your project requires plenum-rated cable management throughout, the S14-120-TL0 checks that box without sourcing a separate SKU for above-ceiling runs.
- Black Colorway: Black PA 6-6 carries additional carbon black UV stabilizer. On exposed outdoor runs — security camera cabling on exterior walls, rooftop comms infrastructure — black ties resist UV degradation substantially longer than natural (off-white) nylon. Match to dark conduit or cable for cleaner installs.
- UL 62275 (Type 2 and 21) Listed: Type 2 covers general wiring applications; Type 21 covers outdoor/direct-UV exposure. Dual listing means one SKU covers both interior and exterior scopes — useful when you're bidding a mixed indoor/outdoor project and want one line item on the BOM.
- RoHS Compliant: Required by many commercial and government contracts, particularly in the EU and on federally-funded infrastructure projects. Compliance is built in — no substitution needed at submittal time.
- 250-Count Package / 2,500-Count Carton: Package quantity matches a mid-size job-lot purchase. Carton breaks to 2,500 for larger installations — a commercial building's security rough-in or a campus network infrastructure pull might consume 500–1,000 ties easily, making carton-level purchasing straightforward to budget.
Integration & Compatibility
The S14-120-TL0 is compatible with standard cable-tie installation tools designed for intermediate-width nylon ties. Panduit's PLT series tensioning tools and cut-off guns are a natural pairing for high-volume installs — consistent tension prevents under-tightening (bundle slippage) and over-tightening (insulation damage). Cross-reference competitive equivalents include CT120400B0, GRP141200, PLT4H-TL0, and T120R0H4 for specification substitution purposes. Pair with cable management accessories such as edge clips, cable tie mounts, or panduit-compatible mounting bases when you need the bundle anchored to a surface rather than free-hanging. For routing and protection needs across the full installation, consider reviewing a wire routing and management guide to match tie size to bundle diameter and pull tension.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the S14-120-TL0 rated for outdoor use?
A: Yes. The S14-120-TL0 is manufactured from weather-resistant black Polyamide 6-6 (PA 6-6) and carries UL 62275 Type 21 listing, which specifically covers outdoor and direct UV-exposure applications. The black colorway indicates carbon-black UV stabilization for extended service life in sun-exposed installations.
Q: What is the tensile strength of the S14-120-TL0?
A: The minimum rated tensile (pull-out) strength is 54.4 kg (approximately 120 lb). This is the minimum force required to cause the locking head to fail under a straight pull — sufficient for heavy cable bundles in commercial construction and security wiring applications.
Q: Can the S14-120-TL0 be used in plenum air-handling spaces?
A: Yes. The S14-120-TL0 carries an AH-2 plenum rating under UL 62275, making it suitable for use in plenum-rated ceiling and air-handling spaces where flame-spread and smoke-development requirements apply.
Q: How many cable ties come per package, and what is the carton quantity?
A: Each package contains 250 cable ties. The full carton contains 2,500 ties (10 packages per carton). The minimum order quantity (MOQ) is 10 packages (2,500 ties total).
Q: What standards does the S14-120-TL0 meet?
A: The S14-120-TL0 is listed to UL 62275 (Types 2 and 21) and is RoHS compliant. These certifications cover general wiring, outdoor, and environmental compliance requirements common in commercial and government projects.
Q: Are there compatible competitive cross-references for the S14-120-TL0?
A: Yes. Known compatible cross-references include CT120400B0, GRP141200, PLT4H-TL0, and T120R0H4. If you are substituting from one of these part numbers, verify bundle diameter and tensile requirements against your project spec before switching.
The S14-120-TL0 sits in a useful middle ground that a lot of security integrators overlook: long enough at 368 mm to wrap a substantial conduit bundle, rated at 54.4 kg tensile so it won't back out under cable weight, and dual-listed UL 62275 Type 2 and Type 21 so you're covered whether the run stays inside or exits through an exterior wall. It's the tie I'd spec when I don't want to manage two SKUs across an interior-to-exterior camera cabling job.
Technical Highlights:
- 54.4 kg Minimum Tensile: At 120 lb pull-out rating, these hold a meaningful cable bundle without slipping under load — relevant on vertical drops in riser closets or multi-conductor exterior runs where gravity and cable weight put continuous tension on every tie.
- PA 6-6 Black / Type 21 Outdoor Dual Rating: The combination of UV-stabilized nylon 6-6 and a Type 21 outdoor listing means you're not gambling on service life on rooftop or exterior-wall runs. Generic black ties often skip the formal Type 21 listing even when they look identical.
- AH-2 Plenum Approval: On commercial security or AV installs where code requires plenum-rated hardware above drop ceilings, this single SKU satisfies both the above-ceiling and the outdoor portions of the run. That simplifies submittals and eliminates a common RFI.
Deployment Considerations:
- The 250-count package with a 2,500-count carton (MOQ 10 packs) is sized for project procurement, not incidental maintenance stock. Order at the carton break if you're rough-wiring a multi-camera commercial site — you'll use them.
- At 368 mm length, confirm your bundle diameter before ordering. If you're bundling thin Cat6 runs of 4–6 cables, this tie has more length than needed and you may prefer a shorter intermediate for a cleaner, tighter loop without excess tail.
For a commercial security rough-in — exterior camera cabling exiting through wall penetrations, transitioning to above-ceiling plenum runs, and terminating in an IDF — the S14-120-TL0 handles the full path under a single, spec-compliant SKU without substitution at the plenum or outdoor boundary.
